What fits in a garage? A standard single garage (15-18 m²) holds the contents of a 1-2 bedroom flat: sofa, bed frame, dining table, 20-30 boxes, plus bikes and garden equipment. Drive-up access makes loading easy. Most garages are weather-sealed with a lockable door. Tip: stack boxes against the back wall and leave a walkway down the centre for access.
Storage demand and seasonal trends
Storage demand varies by season — student moves peak May-June, house moves peak spring and autumn, business stock rotation peaks before Q4. Early booking secures the best-located spaces.
Frequently asked questions
How do I move items into the space?
Arrange your own transport to the host's address. Most spaces have drive-up or street-level access. The listing shows access details including parking, lift availability and stairs. For large moves, a van hire or removal service works — the host can usually advise on local options.
Can I store inherited items while deciding what to keep?
Clearing a family home after a bereavement is emotional and rarely urgent. A Packhood space lets you store inherited furniture, photo albums, china and sentimental items safely while you take time to decide. Indoor spaces (spare rooms, basements) protect delicate heirlooms. No minimum term means you store for exactly as long as you need.
What is the cheapest way for students to store belongings between terms?
Packhood peer-to-peer storage is typically 40-60% cheaper than university storage schemes or commercial pods. A spare room or attic near campus costs €50-90/month — enough for 10-15 boxes, a desk chair and a suitcase. Split a larger garage with a housemate to halve the cost further. No contracts, no minimum term.
What happens if the host cancels?
Full refund to your original payment method. Packhood's trust team helps you find a comparable space in your area. Hosts with repeated cancellations are delisted to protect renter experience.
Is there a minimum booking period?
No. All Packhood bookings are month-to-month by default. Renters can cancel with 14 days' notice. Some hosts offer discounts for longer commitments, but there is never a lock-in contract or minimum term.
How should I store wine safely?
Wine needs a cool, stable environment — ideally 10-15 degrees C with minimal temperature swings. Basements on Packhood are the best option: naturally cool, dark and vibration-free. Store bottles on their sides to keep corks moist. Avoid garages and sheds where summer heat can spoil wine within weeks. Ask the host about seasonal temperature range before booking.
Can I visit the space before booking?
Yes — message the host through Packhood to ask questions, request more photos or arrange a viewing. Most hosts are happy to show the space. Every listing also has photos, dimensions, map location and host reviews.
How is Packhood different from Stashbee or Storemates?
Packhood operates specifically in Ireland, the UK and the Netherlands with local Stripe payouts, ID verification, and the €300/£300 Host Guarantee. Month-to-month rolling, no minimum term. Hosts keep 95% (5% commission vs 15-20% on some platforms).
How fast do hosts get paid?
Hosts receive payment via Stripe Connect within 24 hours of the renter's move-in date. Monthly payments follow the same cycle. Payouts land in your connected bank account in your market's currency (€ for Ireland/Netherlands, £ for UK).
What is the Packhood Host Guarantee?
Automatic protection included with every booking, covering up to €300 (£300 UK) per booking for renter-caused damage to the host's property. Requires verified host status, accepted and paid booking, pre-move-in photos, and timely claim filing.
